About this opportunity
The Massachusetts state government has issued Request for Quotation (RFQ) RFQ-26-04862 for Research Operations Support services, with a posting date of May 5, 2026, and a submission deadline of May 27, 2026. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide comprehensive research operations support services encompassing research administration, compliance management, grant management, and related operational functions that support the state's research initiatives. Vendors are required to submit detailed quotations that outline their proposed service delivery approach, staffing qualifications and experience, and comprehensive cost structures with detailed cost breakdowns. The state will evaluate proposals based on vendor demonstration of relevant experience in research operations support, institutional knowledge of compliance requirements, capacity to support state research operations, and competitive pricing. Key objectives include ensuring effective research administration, maintaining compliance with applicable regulations, and supporting the state's grant management and research operational needs.
The RFQ documentation does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions on eligible vendors based on disadvantaged enterprise status in the available summary information. While the procurement may consider incumbent performance and existing service levels as part of the evaluation process, no specific incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the materials provided. The RFQ establishes that pricing will be determined on a competitive basis through the vendor quotation process, though specific budget allocations or award value ranges are not disclosed in the available documentation. Vendors should be prepared to address integration with existing state research operations infrastructure and technology systems as applicable to their proposed service delivery model. Additional details regarding funding sources, complete contract terms, renewal options, specific performance metrics, and any other procurement requirements would be contained in the complete RFQ documentation and any subsequent addenda issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
